SYT8 blocking peptide
SYT8 Antibody (Center) Blocking peptide
NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
NCBI Description
This gene encodes a member of the synaptotagmin protein family. Synaptotagmins are membrane proteins that are important in neurotransmission and hormone secretion, both of which involve regulated exocytosis. Expression of the encoded protein in human pancreatic islets has been connected to activity of the promoter for the insulin gene, on the same chromosome several hundred kilobases away (PMID: 21336277 and 22928559). This association would link response to gluclose to insulin secretion. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms. [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2014]
Uniprot Description
SYT8: Isoform 4 may play a role in the trafficking and exocytosis of secretory vesicles in non-neuronal tissues. Mediates Ca(2+)-regulation of exocytosis acrosomal reaction in sperm. May mediate Ca(2+)-regulation of exocytosis in insulin secreted cells. Belongs to the synaptotagmin family. 2 isoforms of the human protein are produced by alternative splicing.

Chromosomal Location of Human Ortholog: 11p15.5
Cellular Component: plasma membrane
Molecular Function: calcium ion binding; calcium-dependent phospholipid binding; clathrin binding; syntaxin binding
Biological Process: calcium ion-dependent exocytosis of neurotransmitter; regulation of calcium ion-dependent exocytosis; vesicle fusion

Product Notes
The SYT8 syt8 (Catalog #AAA9217547) is a Blocking Peptide and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "SYT8, Blocking Peptide" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.Precautions
